Due to how poor twitter is run, he can't get it back.

I wish celebs would just ditch the platform already.

@Syldon @loobkoob "Must"? My impression is that it does not, and is said not to, and that that is not impossible.

Ok you made me research it. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lemmy_(software)

Lemmy instances are federated with each other, allowing a user on a given instance to participate in a "community" on another Lemmy instance without having to create an account on the other instance;[4] and with other instances in the Fediverse that use different software. ActivityPub is the protocol used to allow Lemmy instances to operate as a federated social network. It allows users to interact with compatible platforms including Mastodon and PeerTube.[16]>

It works as I said. I never realised Lemmy was linked. TIL

@Syldon Did it clear up your belief there must be a central control point?

(If I get to that WP article I might change "are federated" to "may federate" because it is more precise, and because that is part of the methods which substitute for central oversight.
